The 1905 Committee stands for civic engagement and accountability. Our purpose has always been, and remains, to hold Premier Danielle Smith accountable to the true conservative values she was elected to uphold.
Many see this weekend as a “defeat” for the 1905 Committee, but in reality, the exact opposite is true.
This is what success looks like.
1. Unprecedented Engagement: Over 6,000 Albertans attended the UCP AGM, marking the largest political gathering in Canadian history. This turnout shows a groundswell of civic participation.
2. Proof of Public Pressure: In the weeks leading up to the AGM, a rapid succession of legislative proposals was put forth, demonstrating that public pressure can drive meaningful results.
3. High Expectations Set: Due to this pressure, Danielle Smith has set a high bar of expectations and must now follow through with impactful and timely actions. The bar has never been higher.
4. Unwavering Conservative Support: With 91.5% support for the Premier, any cabinet minister or staff member who hinders the conservative mandate does so at their own peril. The mandate for conservative values is now indisputable.
5. A Moment for Bold Action: There has never been a better time for the Premier to act boldly and fulfill the promises made in her powerful speech.

Here’s something that has confused me lately. We have seen and continue to see the erosion of our rights and freedoms. Some would say this has been going since 2015, and I would agree. It’s even accelerated since MC took power in my opinion. I just don’t understand why so many Canadians don’t seem to see this and seem oblivious to this. I honestly can’t even keep track of the various bills in the last year that attack our rights and freedoms. At times, I feel helpless as I try to raise awareness but it feels like shouting in the wind.
Then there is my family, who either seem oblivious or ignorant to what’s going on. I’m just tired of the fight to be honest. Tired of fighting for things that many in my own extended family don’t see as slipping away.
Well, here’s to a nice day today!!

“Smith played her hand deftly by insisting Albertans have the right to be heard.
But recently she has come out very strongly as a federalist, at times appearing to be an ambitious politician with federal aspirations.
Proudly announcing that she “trusts Mark Carney” is also revealing and disappointing — his bending and often breaking the truth is a matter of documentation, not opinion. “
Much of her behaviour has been anything but conservative, including claiming to derisk the project, which really means transferring the risk to Alberta taxpayers.
“Danielle Smith’s role has been surprising and disappointing. With time pressure on Carney to have early success regarding his “build Canada” imperative, she unwisely allowed the pressure of time to work against Alberta.
A more experienced negotiator would have recognized the advantage of time and negotiated accordingly.
Instead, Premier Smith accepted the punishing carbon tax ...
